Abstract

The Josephson coupling between two volumes of superfluid 3He-B also couples the phase difference to the spin-orbit texture of the order parameter. As a result, the equilibrium configuration of the macroscopic texture depends on the phase difference. If the junction is biased by a pressure head, the Josephson oscillations of the supercurrent are accompanied by an oscillation of the texture close to the junction. This leads to a radiation of spin waves from the weak link, and thus contributes to the dissipative dc currents flowing through it. PACS numbers: 67.57.De, 67.57.Fg, 67.57.Np.
